Abandoned New-borns - Q & A Question No 29I am the tutor of a child who was found abandoned in Malta soon after birth in 1990. I understand that the citizenship law as recently amended has granted Maltese citizenship to the said child who may retain it indefinitely. Is this correct? Yes. The law stipulates that in similar cases, if no right to any other citizenship can be established, the person concerned shall be deemed to be (always) a citizen of Malta.
